Photographers Log – Week 16

[dcs_img_left_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”400″ h=”267″ pid=”664″]

Greetings, Saskatoon! Points to anyone who caught the less than subtle reference in my self portrait this week.

I’m about 90% certain the black bird I photographed this week was a crow, not a raven. That said, I’m a photographer not an orthnilogist.

While “Nevermore” would also have looked cool there, but it wouldn’t have worked with the themesong currently stuck in my head.

To see more pretty pictures, including a word from our studio mascot, click the thumbnails below.

Photographers Log – Week 11

[dcs_img_left_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”400″ h=”267″ pid=”617″ desc=”Next week, I will take a cheery self portrait. Honest.”]

Hello Saskatoon! I am sorry for the delay in this week’s update. It has been a busy week, and our car getting stuck on a snowbank Friday certainly did not help matters!

(Thank god for helpful neighbours — We were able to get it pulled out without having to call for a tow.)

This week I have been doing a lot of work with my new 50mm prime, and I absolutely love it.

Any Saskatoon Photographers considering a new lens should look into the Canon 1.8. It makes a great walk-around lens if you don’t want to be lugging your zooms around all the time!

I did an entire shoot with it on Saturday and I am so happy with the results. Images from that will be appearing soon as part of my new client guide! I can’t wait to share them with you.

In other news, I am putting together some geeky wedding freebies for anyone looking to create their own wedding invitations, so you can expect to be seeing these images and possibly some of my images from last week as well reappearing with some modifications in the near future.

Photographers Log – Week 10 – Steampunk & Pet Photography Edition!

[dcs_img_left_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”400″ h=”267″ pid=”609″ desc=”Ozymandias, King of Kings. Gaze upon his works, ye mighty, and despair.”] Hello Saskatoon! Another week, another seven photos to share. This week we have a new portrait of Ozymandias, the studio mascot.

He is a nocturnal creature and not fond of bright lights, but he will occasionally stay still long enough for me to take a shot when bribed with a treat.

His current aliases include The Great and Powerful Oz, or just “Oz” for short.

[dcs_img_right_ngg pos=”right” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”400″ h=”267″ pid=”608″] This image just makes me happy. I love steampunk, and each image in this series seems to me like there should be a character to go with it.

Any writers in the audience who care to describe some characters or a story to go with these please comment! I would love to hear what you come up with.

Happy Valentines! Photographers Log – Week 7

[dcs_img_left_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”267″ h=”400″ pid=”591″] Happy Valentines! The image on the left showcases something interesting my husband and I discovered this week — My ring fits, perfectly, on a Canadian penny (though sadly it shifted a touch was I took this photo) and his fits precisely on a dollar. I thought it would make the perfect image for the occasion.

[dcs_img_right_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”267″ h=”400″ pid=”593″] Now, this next image requires something of an explanation. For several years the hanging lamp in my kitchen has been home to this pile of dollar store toy magnets. I am not sure there was a reason we put them there, and I sometimes wonder if I will remember to take them with us if we ever move.

Click the “more” link to see the rest of my images for the week — and to help me name a new friend. (Hint: I am open to any suggestion that doesn’t include Sonic.) …
